This was much appreciated. I wanted to ask about another aspect of starting a family with MS: My friends with kids are 'constantly' sick and that makes me a bit concerned as my MS-symptoms become much worse during infections and a time afterwards. Do you have any thoughts or experiences on this aspect of early parenthood and MS? Is there any way to prepare for this that can reduce the risk or severity of these 'pseudo-relapses'? Thank you.

This was very very helpful. I honestly didn't know there are so many DMTs which can be used during pregnancy. Neurologists here in Bosnia usually do not like DMTs and pregnancy in combination. I have 9 y/o daughter and I started giving her 2000 i.u of D vitamin a month ago. I hope she will not have bad luck to be one in 40 people who will inherit MS from me. No one ever suggested that, not my neurologist, not even the pediatritian. Thank you again and wish you all the best
